User:Paxed/ReplaceCharsBlock

ReplaceCharsBlock extension.

NOTE: Still experimental, DO NOT USE!

<replacecharsblock>
<replacements>
b=foobar
</replacements>
abc
</replacecharsblock>

would show "afoobarc"

• <replacecharsblock> accepts one parameter, newlines. With a value of 1, all newlines will be replaced with <br>. Any other value will be used as is.
• default as a replacement: used for any characters that don't have explicitly defined replacement. $1 in the replacement will be substituted with the character which is being replaced.

For example:

<div class='ttyscreen'>
<replacecharsblock newlines="1">
<replacements>
k=[[kobold|{{red|k}}]]
f=[[cat|{{white|f}}]]
@={{white|@}}
|={{lightgray||}}
default={{lightgray|$1}}
</replacements>
